Times are changing

Posted by: Laura on: October 31, 2008

So what’s with having no trick-or-treaters? I was so looking forward to handing out candy to cute little kids in costumes. Instead I got a bunch of teenagers not even dressed up. Coloring your hair blue and orange is not considered a costume in my opinion. I got one group of younger kids, but one boy [...]

Boring day

My second day of unemployment wasn’t nearly as successful as the first. No interviews today
I sent my resume to 3 more companies with positions available. I went to the gym with the new girl who got laid off- I’ll call her Angelina for future reference. I’ve lost 3 pounds since I was in Minnesota [...]

Firsts

I know a lot of Christians who don’t celebrate Halloween, but my family has always celebrated it. We were never dressed up as anything evil. My favorite costumes as a kid were an M&M, a construction worker, and a princess. We’d always go trick-or-treating in our neighborhood for a little bit and then head to [...]

Life of the unemployed

Posted by: Laura on: October 29, 2008

I woke up about 7:30 this morning realizing I didn’t have to go to work. I started sobbing. Jesse heard me and came up to my bed. “What’s wrong?” “I have no job!” I sobbed. He reassured me I’d get one and that we would be okay.
Nugget extended his paw to touch my arm as [...]

Crap.

We had a department meeting at work yesterday and my boss told us there would be more lay offs and this time our department would be hit. I kinda got this feeling it would be me. He went on to say he’s enjoyed working with all of us, etc. Ok, fantastic it’s going to be soon.
We all left [...]

Problem solved

Like I mentioned in Wedding Weekend Update Part 2, I had completely forgotten that we no longer had a flower girl dress, but my sister reminded me as we parted ways that weekend. The wedding is in 9 weeks- what the heck are we going to do for a dress? There’s no way we are [...]

Wedding Weekend Update Part 3

Posted by: Laura on: October 28, 2008

The girls and I headed to the salon. I got a mani and a pedi and just absolutely love getting pampered! The other girls loved it too. Jesse’s family headed back home and the remaining girls and I headed to dinner.
At dinner, the girls decorated me with fun bachelorette attire. I had a shot glass [...]

Wedding Weekend Update Part 2

Posted by: Laura on: October 24, 2008

I was informed that the flower girl dress I had picked out was no longer available to order. Oh, great. One more thing I had to worry about. Saturday I was to take some time out from the shower to pick out a new dress for my niece.
Saturday morning, my parents picked me up at [...]

Biggest Loser, S6 E6

Posted by: Laura on: October 22, 2008

I missed the first hour of the show as the local candidates were debating and I didn’t realize the show was airing on another channel. This is what I do know from the first hour: The black team won the challenge and all got a video conference from home.
At the weigh-in, the blue team lost [...]

There’s a pretty good chance I might get laid off soon….
